First off, I'd like to say that I am an avid supporter of going to get Jennings and also drafting a recevier early on.

But I really think we should go get Ramses Barden. The guy has such high upside!

Look at the numbers:

Height: 6'6

40 yard dash: 4.48

Weight: 229 pounds

But MOST SHOCKING THING ABOUT BARDEN is his HAND SIZE:

The guy has 10.75 inch hand size!! Wtf!!! lmao

the average, guys like britt and others is 9.5, Barden even has bigger hands than Hakeem Nicks! lmao

I really think we should go get Barden, the upside is incredible, with that height speed and hand size.

He would be way cheaper than Hartline and he has the ability to play.

Go get Jennings, but for the other side, let it be a split between Barden/Patterson.

His combine 40 was a 4.55. He had 220 yards

And you want us to ditch our best WR (Currently) for him? Sigh...

Barden: Career (4 YRS) 29 REC 394 YDS 13.6 AVG 0 TDS

Hartline: Career (4 YRS) 183 REC 2,753 YDS 15.0 AVG 6 TDS

I'll take productivity over upside.

Hartline had more yards in one game (253 yards against Cardinals) then Barden had the whole year

I never heard of Barden - what team is he currently the 4th string WR on?

Barden has all the measurables . . . but Hartline is a better WR. Why is that?

Hartline can get seperation and Barden can't. Hartline is a better route runner and has better hands. He's also faster than Barden.

Barden is a downgrade from Hartline. Is a 4th WR/red zone specialist.

This is all true, but in all fairness, Barden was buried on a very talented Giants roster. At any given time, he's been behind Steve Smith, Mario Manningham, Victor Cruz, Hakeem Nicks, etc. All of these guys are better than our entire receiving corps.

The fact that Barden was the 4th WR doesn't bother me . . . he was a man amongst boys in college but the #1 concern for him heading to the NFL was would he get seperation from NFL CB's. He still struggles with that and in this offense you need WR's that can get seperation from the DB. To me he'd be my #4 WR coming here with the current team we got, because I'd put him behind Hartline, Bess and Matthews.
